The Best System Chipset Designer: Nvidia

Nvidia won almost 75% of all votes this time. And it is actually very logical result, I should say. Nvidia is the first company to design system chipsets supporting two fully-fledged PCI Express slots for graphics cards. Of course, ATI responded with their Radeon Xpress 200 Crossfire Edition chipset, but since the launch has been postponed a few times, they simply couldn’t win the market back before the end of the year.
